 Yoga Fire! - Street Fighter 2: The World Warrior: A Tribute Album released on 03/12/13 *posted with moderator approval* bandcamp explanation posted:I had this thought while in Bhutan in November 2012: "An album covering all the Street Fighter 2 songs would be really fun to make." It was. I made this album for fun, basically because I really love these songs and because I wanted to make use of the recording studio that I built over the summer. I played all the instruments live and did all the audio engineering. I posted it on my Facebook wall with few expectations and found that my friends were sharing it, and then their friends were sharing it, and the bandcamp trackbacks then started showing it posted all sorts of places I've never heard of. I have a few buddies in the chiptune and video game music scenes, and they are adamant that I need to pursue exposing this more. I thought, hey, what better way to do that then by sharing it with Something Awful? This place has consistently given me entertainment for 8 years now, so I love the idea of giving something back to the community. STREAM/DOWNLOAD LINK: http://yogafirewa.bandcamp.com Just enter 0.00 for a free download.  Enjoy! Edit: Now also available for streaming on YouTube in playlist form.

I'm really digging the slow tempo and is that harmonica? EDIT I think you're right vvvvvvvvvvv because sometimes i thought it was an accordion or something too. Prince Reggie K fucked around with this message at Mar 15, 2013 around 01:49 |

The slowed-down swing take on this well-known fast paced album really caught my interest. Very impressed!

I like this so far, but these track listings don't make me think I'm going to hear an homage to the great SF2 SNES or SSF2 Genesis pause sounds.

I'm getting the same vibe that Silent Hill had on some of its rock tracks, which is always a good thing.

The Sagat theme (Emperor) is fantastic. This is awesome.

I didn't dig the tempo at first but as I was working with it playing it kept me mellow. Well done!

How dare you make a Guile's theme that doesn't go with everything! Actually, it still does, just at close to 1/2 the speed, but the video has to be slowed down too which makes it even funnier.

I would love to see a "Guile's Theme Goes With Everything" video that uses my version. If that ever happens it will totally make my day.

Two songs in and I've already posted this on Facebook. The audio work makes this sound very professional.

OP, if you haven't already, check out some albums by "The One-Ups". They're on spotify and have a very similar slowed down-jazzy style of game covers.

thank you for having a prominent and clean bassline, it's probably my favorite part of this whole endeavor

This is pretty good. Video game covers and video game inspired music are pretty crowded genres, and Street Fighter 2 is up there with the Mega Man games for most musically explored titles (I'd link some of my favorite tracks, but that would be inconsiderate), so it's really cool that you still had a fresh take to bring to these tunes 20 years later.

Very nice album. I was a fan of the soundtrack to begin with, but this is a very nice take on it.

Thank you all, this experience has been really wonderful. I never expected that I would one day have the #1 album in instrumental rock on Bandcamp. This community played a good part in that achievement. 2013 has been the best year ever for me.

 This is wicked and I love it. Balrog and Vega's themes are my favourite. Do some more music.

Listened to this album all day yesterday. Now i want a melodica. I had never really heard one played, and it just ... it seems to scratch that itch that harmonica does, just with a better sound. So far "Wind // Woods // Fire // Mountain" is my favorite track by far. But im loving all of them. Terrific work.
